Literature: Wine coasters were not made until the 1760’s when they were produced from pierced sheet similar to the cake baskets of that date. They were usually made in pairs, sometimes fours, but it is rare to find an antique set longer than four.

These elegant silver wine coasters are in very good condition. The decoration is still crisp.

Maker: S C Younge & Co
